Queen Paola of Belgium - Birthday Reply (2018)

Today, I received a reply from Queen Paola of Belgium. I had written to her last month for her 81st birthday.

The front of the envelope features a purple crown and the name of Queen Paola's official residence, Belvédère (Castle). The stamp on the bottom left says "Service du Roi/ Service of the King."



Inside is a typed card, with printed on signature.


The message is in French, one of Belgium's official languages, and translates to:
Belvédère Castle
September 2018 
With all my heart, thank you very much for your kind greetings and thoughts on the occasion of my birthday,
Paola
